Second-placed North End Cosmos lost 4-1 to Purbrook United, who netted through Jed Kennett, Oliver Page, Sage Rowland and Brad Silvester.

Division 4 leaders Cross Keys Athletic lost their 100 per cent record when they were beaten 3-2 by Padnell Rovers.

AFC Bedhampton Village Reserves are joint-second after a 4-0 win over Fleur De Lys.
